Safari Itinerary
Day 1. Pick up from the airport to Samburu
Today you will be picked up from the airport by one of our safari representatives, who will give you a short introduction and briefing on your upcoming safari.

You will cross the equator at Nanyuki and continue north before descending from the cool highlands into the wildlife-rich savanna woodlands. Arrive at Samburu National Reserve in time for lunch and an afternoon game drive. The Samburu is one of the lesser-known Kenyan national parks but is nevertheless teeming with wildlife. Situated alongside the Ewaso Nyiro River, there is plenty here to attract animals from the surrounding savanna plains. The reserve is home to an abundance of rare northern species such as the Grevy’s zebra, Somali ostrich, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, and the beisa oryx (also referred to as the “Samburu Special Five”).
